SANDY - Husky Dog for Adoption in Cadiz, Ohio

Meet SANDY, part Husky, part Energizer Bunny, and maybe a future Olympic Gold Medal winner in Zoomies. At just 1 and a half years old, SANDY has enough energy to power a small village and enough love to fill every home in it. SANDY was surrendered to the Harrison County Dog Pound in Cadiz, OH because his family could no longer care for him. His world has changed, but his enthusiasm for life hasn’t. SANDY lived like a king. Breakfast was served at 6:30am, dinner at 4pm and bedtime at 10pm. SANDY looked forward to it because he spent most of his time being busy. Those zoomies we mentioned? He takes them very seriously. Professional speed and impressive cornering make for a serious Olympic contender. Wait, what? Zoomies aren’t an Olympic sport? Well, they should be because SANDY has been perfecting his craft. While SANDY zooms, he’s serious about it so he’ll need some space to do it. A backyard might become his next training facility. But, there’s more to SANDY than his athletic prowess. He loves walks, playing fetch and toss, and considers frozen carrot pieces a delicacy. He’s good with other dogs and kids too. In fact, he seems to know that he has to be gentle around babies. He’s also smart. He’s crate trained (crated at night and when no one is home), housebroken (goes to the door), knows sit and lay down. He’s working on roll over. He’s got the “roll” part mastered, but is still working on “over”. SANDY is up to date on vaccines, neutered and chipped. This boy will make a fantastic addition to a family that is active and loving!
